One aspect of the toy was the level of crisp detail. We used jewelry techniques to bring this level to the figures. Remember this was back before high quality manufacturing methods such as CNC machining and EDM. We were still in the middle of master pattern making and pantograph machining. <br />As to the demise, this was the first shooting toy for Hasbro (not Nerf). Shooting toys were frowned on by Alan so support never really materialized. We were active into the second year when the line was killed.

I always thought they looked cool, but never really got into them until here recently when I started looking at boxed sets. I love the box art and I think that is a big seller for this line.
